Painless Spelling by Mary Elizabeth
The author points out ways in which recognizing sound and letter patterns makes spelling easier. Also important are recognition of diphthongs, silent letters, compound and abbreviated words, contractions, homophones, homographs, prefixes, suffixes, and base words. Brain tickler problems challenge students' imaginations and test their learning progress. Barron's popular Painless Series of study guides for middle school and high school students offer a lighthearted, often humorous approach to their subjects, transforming details that might once have seemed boring or difficult into a series of interesting and mentally challenging ideas. Most titles in the series feature many fun-to-solve Brain Tickler problems with answers at the end of each chapter.Mary Elizabeth is a new author who creates stories about the skeletons in your closet by finding words in disarray. Mary was born and reared in Southern California and is known as The Realist. She is a married, a mother of four beautiful children, and the owner of a rambunctious Pit Bull and a prim Chihuahua. By day, she's a hairstylist, but by night, she's a contemporary fiction, new adult novelist. Mary is frequently seen finger twirling her hair and munching on a licorice stick while writing and rewriting a statement until it's perfect.
She happened onto her ability for story-telling by chance, yet she has a stranglehold over literature. And she isn't going to let go until every story has been told.
